Yep, lost most of my pics. I was consolidating everything so I could back it up aaaaaannnnnd my HDD died. So its going to end up being at I hope the most $1400 to recover it. Which I don't have because I just got some new toys! I am shooting with a D7100 now
and I am pretty gorramed happy with it too. I also got a 28-300mm, and a 105mm macro. I am still using the 10-24mm a lot, I really enjoy the wide angle lens, pushing perspective is hella fun.
On more shitty news.
The Intel site in MA is closing at the end of the year, if we go into a decon phase I have another six months after that too. I knew it was going to happen eventually but its a pretty stark reality now. I'm not sure what I am going to do.
